BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

This proposal relates to heating ventilation, air-conditioning [HVAC]systems, and/or drying and similar structures, and to essentially energysaving technologies which are clean, pollution free in all theiroperations and after them.

Conventional heating systems consume energy of high amounts using fuels,combustion, or burning other materials, or at least burning off theoxygen of air by usual electric elements. As a result, pollution,emissions, effluences and discharges, sudden side effects occur beingharmful to us and environment. These conventional heating systems havelow thermal efficiencies, constant and high energy losses. Heat pumpsare generally more free from the said disadvantages but they are muchmore expensive; their efficiency is waving and ecology depends on usedrefrigerants These lacks make the heat pumps not very acceptable in manycases economically.

The examples of imperfect heating devices are described in U.S. Pat. No.4,457.083 and No. 4,426,793 both issued to Kuboyama. These patentspropose heat generating apparatuses, processes using air frictioncirculation and general convection. These systems are not efficient andhave limited ranges of temperature increase capability because of highenergy requirements of friction devices and non-accumulativetechnological methods.

Thus it is desirable to provide a heating system which is REALLYefficient, doesn't pose any harms to the environment and may be used inany HVAC structure), and/or drying, and/or other heating purposes forany house, building, structure, block—separately or combining withsource of already existing and working systems.

Dynamic Natural Heater, Technology using the inborn property of air beheated under the pressure in natural accumulative self-boostingtechnology, combining different pure air-treating pressing-it-upmanners, provides high heat capacity, total efficiency, essentialreducing of power supply and costs of equipment for any needed outputsin BTU per hour in multiple versions of units. Different andlow-power-units of my technology such as fans and simplified air slidevane compressors working as self-boosters, at themselves in accumulativeclosed circuits cooperate and interact each with others, providing saidabove high thermal and total efficiency, ecological purity in naturalmanners.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is an object of this proposal to provide the effective, highefficient air heating technology with clean ecology without anypollutants or other side effects. It is another object of this proposalto make this technology natural by (a) usage the inborn normal propertyof our air which becomes hot under pressure; (b) making all operationsof dynamic treating air in accumulative manner, cyclically. It isanother object of this proposal to provide essential reducing of powersupply and costs of equipments—for any outputs in BTU per hour.

It is another object of this proposal to have heaters and technologicalsolutions for any house, building, other structures including vehicles,in multiple versions and purposes including drying, water heating,others.

The nature and substance of this proposal are closed-loop tunnels,closed combined compressed air net-structures, coming cold airpropelling structure all placed in a combined heat-transferring casingwith supporting devices, insulation, meters.

Said systems work in natural accumulative schemes, their power unitsoperate as self-boosters, work at and for themselves thus providing thecommon high efficiency and real energy saving. With conventionalhumidifiers and evaporative coolers, Natural Dynamic Heater Technologymay be used for any ecologically clean HVAC-System.

the said closed-loop tunnels and closed combined compressed airnet-structures work with their internal operative air which isreplenished up to definite levels of pressure inside said circuits fromcoming to be heated air according to requirements. This occurs when theHeater starts to work and comes to the stable regime.

Combined Operation and Interactions

The general technology is shown in FIGS. 1, 4, 6. This proposal uses thenatural property of air to become hot under pressure; it's done byOPERATING AIR which is driven to move inside closed circuits in order tobe pressed and get hot:

-   -   (a) closed loop tunnel 22 where double cascade vane axial        multistage fan 23 provides high capacity and relatively low        pressure for cyclically moving inside the tunnel 22 OPERATING        FAN AIR, illustrated in FIG. 1.    -   (b) closed combined compressed air net-structure 31 where the        slide vane air compressor 30 provides relatively high pressure        and low capacity for cyclically moving inside the structure 31        OPERATIVE COMPRESSED AIR, illustrated in FIG. 4.    -   The fan 23 and compressor 30 work in their said closed circuits        in accumulative manners as self-boosters at themselves, thus        providing needed pressure of their parts of operative air and        rising temperatures inside said closed circuits 22, 31.

Pressed inside said closed circuits 22 and 31 the operating air needs tobe compensated by air amends up to definite different levels of pressureand volumes in said circuits 22, 31. FIG. 4 shows how compensativecompressed-air heat exchanger 33C replenishes the operating air in theclosed-loop tunnel 22. FIGS. 4, 5 show how both intake ports 30F and 30Pof air compressor 30 working independently and separately orsimultaneously, when needed,provide replenishment of the operating airin the structure 31.

This compensation of operating air may be stopped in stableregimes—different for both said circuits.

consecutive, permanent, cyclical work of said fan 23 and compressor 30in their closed circuits as self-boosters leads to: rising the pressuresand thus the temperatures of operating air inside said closed circuitsup to definite levels in stable regimes, accumulating energy anddecreasing power requirements for both structures. The closed-looptunnel 22 and closed combined compressed air net-structure 31 workingwith their hot operative air, become heat generators with all theirelements, which interact, and cooperate, providing common heat transferfor incoming cold air.

Combined multistage heat transfer to incoming cold air is illustrated inFIG. 6. The centrifugal fan 34 propels incoming cold air throughlabyrinth channels of casing 20 consecutively over electric motors 21cooling them; common compressed air heat exchanger 33, combined manifold32; air compressor 30; closed-loop tunnel 22 with its inner supportingheat-exchanger 33S and outer compensative heat-exchanger 33C—thusproviding effective heat transfer and part-bypassing of air forrepetitive heat transfer if needed.

The average percentage of heat production of Dynamic Natural HeaterTechnology is as follows: (a) compressed air net-structure 31 givesabout 48% of total heat capacity; (b) fan tunnel 22—about 45%; (c) Heatemissions of supporting elements including bypassing air, electricmotors, baffles, internal surfaces of casing—about 7%.

So the Dynamic Natural Heater, Technology provides the total heatcapacity from accumulated pressure-heat energy of compressed-air and fanflows, and supporting heat emissions inside its casing.
